Yesterday we took Abbott and Cal to the Pumpkin Prowl at the Woodland Park Zoo for the third year in a row. It is always exciting to see the pumpkins, and the costumes other prowlers are wearing, and get a little scared sometimes!
There were lots and lots of pumpkins:
Some spooky:
My personal favorite:
What's not to love about face painting?
Is it real?
This pumpkin was wild - it appeared to be two fused pumpkins:
The zoo acquired flamingos this past year, so this was a neat addition to the prowl:
If you've got a picture of a favorite pumpkin, feel free to share the link in the comments section.

Wonderful pumpkins! Loved the flamingos and the snake. Thanks for sharing a lovely day. The pictures capture great detail.
What a cool event!
You would love a visit to van Cortland Manor - every year there is a spooky walk, pumpkins galore line the walks and they are truly amazing.
Take a look at Historic Hudson.org and you will see -

Wow I so want to carve a pumpkin right now. I tried an Obama O last night but it didn't turn out very well so it was breakfast. Super yummy pumpkin muffins. I am going to try again just have to get another pumpkin.
By the way thanks for the comment. It's fun having readers I don't know.
That looks like so much fun! I love those pumpkins floating in the swamp with the fog. Too cool!
Thanks for the links, Patricia and Sarah. Happy carving everyone! Glad you enjoyed seeing the Prowl.
Great pictures! I always think about going to the Pumpkin Prowl, but never seem to make it. Looks like it's worth the effort.
I love the care that goes into these pumpkin patches!!
Wow! I wish I could go...that looks like fun. Love the first picture of the owl on the sign. I'm having an obsession with owls this year. They are everywhere....love it. Blog on sister...
What great pictures! Thanks for sharing! I love the pumpkins in the pond with the dry ice~super spooky cool!
I'm jealous! My brother-in-law lives in Seattle and when we visited last summer we went to Woodland Park Zoo. We had so much fun. We wish we could live there too.
This looks like a fun time! I love the floating pumpkins. I think my sister may be near you--I'll have to share this with her for next year.
This is very close to me (MMM's sis) and I love the photos. I'd heard some adverts but wasn't sure what to expect. Def something to look into for next year!
Thanks for the great photos!
